Don't Be Denied God's Power
by Stan Riley
The purpose
of this book is not to force a particular doctrine upon the reader, nor to contradict that
of others, but rather to encourage the Church as a whole to open their eyes and ears: to
consider the words of Jesus and grow in His reflection. I make no claim to be the only or
absolute authority on the subjects contained within this book. However, I can share with
you what I have learned from my experiences over the past thirty-plus years in successful
ministry. The Christian Church as a whole, needs to take a fresh look at itself and begin
to question its apparent complacency toward spiritual power. This book will attempt to:
Letter From the Publisher Every book has a story about how it came to be
published. Some book's stories almost deserve a book by themselves. DON'T BE DENIED GOD'S
POWER has such a story. When this manuscript arrived in my office, it sat in a pile of
other manuscripts for several months.I almost returned it unread. Then, for some unknown
reason, I noticed it. I stuck it, along with other papers, into my briefcase to take with
me on a cross country trip. While on the plane, I reached in my briefcase and blindly
pulled out something to read. I had grabbed DON'T BE DENIED GOD'S POWER on my return I
called the author. I told him that I felt I was to publish his book, but first, I needed
to be sure that he could do what his book said. We arranged a visit. I started testing him
by taking him to a friend who suffered from a spirit of unforgiveness. After delivering
her and then baptizing her in the Holy Spirit, her life changed on the spot. "I'm
feeling like the heaviest load has been cast off my back," she said. It's been a year
since then and there is no doubt about her deliverance. Next I challenged Stan with a
friend who had been diagnosed as having a brain tumor. We drove to her home. Stan and I
prayed for her. At her next doctor's appointment, there was no evidence of a brain tumor!
The list goes on: back problems healed, eye sight restored and person after person
baptized in the Holy Spirit. I've been with Stan on several occasions this last year and
wherever he goes, signs, wonders and miracles follow him. I know from first hand
experience that the gifts of the Holy Spirit are real. And that is the story behind this
book. May it open your eyes to the gifts God has available for us.
